Cardplan® traffic light system: coloured corner pieces for kanban and heijunka boards
Red, yellow and green corner pieces that slip onto the pockets of the Cardplan® board: they mark the zones of the kanban traffic light, the batch of a lot size kanban or the bands of a heijunka board. They are moved by hand when the thresholds change. In light grey, in 250 and 500 mm lengths, they act as a horizontal divider.
Why choose it
Colour zones
Green, yellow and red tell anyone, from a distance, when to plan and when to produce straight away.
Moves in an instant
It slips over the pocket exactly where you want it: if the thresholds change, you move it, without tools.
Also a horizontal divider
In light grey, 250 or 500 mm long, it separates groups of rows on the board.
Per column or per panel
Short lengths to mark a single column, 250 and 500 mm for the full width of the panel.
Choose it if…
- You use a Cardplan® board as a kanban board and want green, yellow and red zones.
- You need to mark the batch of a lot size kanban or the bands of a heijunka board.
- You want to divide the panel into groups of rows with a grey divider.
Choose another solution if…
- You want to divide the board into columns: Vertical divider for Cardplan →
- You want to label rows and columns with a heading: Label holders for Cardplan →
- You prefer a traffic light with coloured boxes, one card per position: Systembox →

Board layout
We choose with you the card height, visible edge, width and height of the panels, columns and coloured zones.
Correct mounting
On a wall, on metal surfaces or on a mobile stand: we tell you which supports and guides are compatible.
Part number list
Boards, dividers, corner pieces, label holders and supports in a single list, ready to order.
Send us an example of the card or document to insert and a photo of the area: we'll propose the configuration.
